Description

Main Purpose: This pull request aims to enhance the security auditing of the project by updating the PHP CodeSniffer (PHPCS) rules to include the pheromone/phpcs-security-audit package.

Key Changes:

  • The composer.json file has been updated to add the pheromone/phpcs-security-audit package, which is designed to improve security checks during the code review process. This addition complements the existing PHPStan requirements, reinforcing the project's commitment to code quality and security.

Additional Notes:

  • Reviewers should ensure that the new security rules integrate smoothly with the existing setup and do not conflict with current coding standards. It would be beneficial to run the phpcs command after this update to verify that the new rules are applied correctly and that existing code does not raise any new warnings.
